Painted People

We went gallery hopping today and the Hans Silvester's photos of the Omo tribe in Ethiopa were extraordianry.

http://www.marlboroughgallery.com/ar...r/artwork.html

It is at the Marlborough Chelsea.

Separate question;

The people who work at the galleries, who my SIL calls gallerinas, are always staring at the computer screesn as if something urgent is happening. Does anyone know what that urgency is?

Wow. Very nice. Les Peuples de L'Omo: No. 2 reminds me of Goldie Hawn and Judy Carnes from Laugh In.

They're hanging out on Fodor's.

Or trying to figure out how to pay for those hair cuts and clothes on their gallerina salaries.
